Motlohi shocked why Mamelodi Sundowns signed Maluleka from Kaizer Chiefs

The retired Masandawana midfielder is unsure why his former team opted to sign the Amakhosi midfield maestro

Former Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Charles Motlohi believes Kaizer Chiefs' George Maluleka is a great player but says age is against him, stating the Tshwane giants could have promoted a youngster.

The former Premier Soccer League (PSL) winner explains coach Pitso Mosimane has players such as Tiyani Mabunda who are not playing regularly, expressing he doesn’t understand why a player beyond the age of 30 was pursued.

Media reports surfaced that ‘Mido’ turned down an offer from Amakhosi before the Naturena-based club announced the Tembisa-born player’s move to Chloorkop a few weeks ago.
